Default Mt57 prop hub bearing

After pulling my prop hub to check the bearing I noticed it is snug in the housing but I CAN rotate with my finger. Is that something that will snug with engine temp or should I snug it up with something. The motor does vibrate alot at full RPM Lanny Khelsea

Get green Locktight, it's for bearings and sleeves, you don't want the bearing races loose.

Rich, Thanks for the answer. Could you shed any light on the high amount of vibration? The prop shaft vibrates left and right a good 1/4 in at 6500. Other than that it sure is a powerhouse. Lanny
